Version 0.142762
On November 19th, 2005 at 4:00 AM PDT all U.S. and European galaxies will be taken down for server maintenance and a live update.
Experience Points
Widened the level ranges for allowable experience points so that players can hunt a wider range of NPCs and creatures for their level.
GCW: New Galactic Civil War Point System
In this publish, we are adding a new Galactic Civil War Point System. Both Rebels and Imperials can earn Planetary Control Points for their side in the war by killing both Rebel and Imperial NPCs and factionally declared players.
Standings in the Galactic Civil War will now be based on the total amount of planetary control points your side has in the war for each of the current planets under contention. The planets on which you can earn points for your side in the war are Corellia , Naboo and Tatooine . Again, each of these three planets will have a different point total.
GCW: Gaining and Losing Points in the War
You must be declared Special Forces to earn these points.
Killing 25 NPC Rebels and Imperials will earn your side 1 point for the planet you are fighting on.
Each factioned player (Rebel and Imperial) you kill will earn your side 1 point for the planet you are fighting on.
The point scores for each planet will decay an unrevealed percentage every day, so you will need to remain active in the war to maintain the standings for your chosen side.
GCW: Checking the Planetary Control Score
There are "News Net" Terminals placed in Starports on Corellia, Naboo and Tatooine that players can use to determine who is winning the war on the planet they are currently on. Rebels and Imperials can to determine the actual score by speaking with a Faction Recruiter.
GCW
Spawns for Faction Bases are going to be temporarily disabled while we revaluate their overall role in the Galactic Civil War
Loot
Fixed an issue that prevented looting while in a group. You will also no longer be receiving the message, "You cannot loot that item because your inventory is full".
New Player Tutorial
Added friend finder terminal into station gamma.
Profession Respec
Fixed an issue that prevented characters from earning experience points (XP) after using the Profession Respec Device.
Fixed an issue that prevented a character from getting the profession reward item associated with the last skill box earned when using a respec device.
Quests
Fixed an issue that allowed Force Sensitive Village quest events to occur. The old man will no longer make his visits.
User Interface
The "Lots Remaining" description has been restored to the personal section of the Character Sheet.
HAM Bar tool tips have been updated to display actual points and not percentages.
The Profession selection window for profession respecs now covers the screen in all resolutions.
Inventory windows should remember settings correctly (size, location, examine info, and avatar display).
